SALES CODE RADÐAM & FM STEREO RADIO
WITH GRAPHIC EQUALIZER, CASSETTE TAPE
PLAYER WITH CD PLAYER
Radio Security Code
This radio is equipped with an anti-theft feature which
requires that a four digit code number be entered when-
ever the power supply is interrupted (such as a discon-
nected battery). The four digit code can be found on the
last page of this manual. Please remove this page from
the manual and store it in a safe place outside of the
vehicle.To enter the code, turn the key to the ON or ACC position
and press the ON/VOL control. The word CODE will
appear on the display. Enter your four digit code by
pressing the appropriate preset buttons in sequence. Your
radio is now ready for basic operation.
If an invalid code is entered into the radio, the radio will
allow two more attempts. After a third attempt of enter-
ing an invalid code, the radio will go into a lockup mode.
This is to prevent continuous attempts at entering the
wrong code until the right code is found.
Once a radio is in this lockup mode, it must be in a state
where battery is applied for approximately 30 minutes.
During this time, if the radio is on, the display will show
ªWAITº. After approximately 30 minutes, (radio on)
radio will display ªCODEº thereby again querying the
operator for the 4 digit anti-theft code.
Operating Instructions - Radio Mode
NOTE:
Power to operate the radio is supplied through
the ignition switch. It must be in the ON or ACC position
to operate the radio.

By pressing the SEEK button when the PTY icon is
displayed, the radio will be tuned to the next frequency
station with the same selected PTY name. The PTY
function only operates when in the FM mode.If a preset button is activated while in the PTY (Program
Type) mode, the PTY mode will be exited and the radio
will tune to the preset station.
AF LOC (Alternative Frequencies and Local
Frequencies) Button
Pressing the AF LOC button will toggle the radio display
as follows: LOC ON »» AF OFF »» LOC OFF. The radio
display will indicate when the LOC and AF are activated.
AF will automatically tune to another frequency of the
same national program when the signal quality of the
currently tuned frequency becomes poor.
LOC limits AF to only tune to another station within the
same region code to ensure the program remains local.
Operating Instructions - Tape Mode
Insert the cassette with the exposed tape side toward the
right and the mechanical action of the player will gently
pull the cassette into the play position.
